Strymon Timeline tutorial: Looping in perfect sync

video upload by Richard DeHove

"If you want to use a looper with drum machines and synths then it's imperative your looper be in perfect sync. For that you need it to be clocked and deliver a precise loop length and a start point in sync with all your other devices.
Happily the Strymon Timeline can do this easily when teamed with a sequencer. Record, start and stop commands (and others) can be delivered by MIDI note number. Here I'm using an Arturia Keystep-37 to send the commands to the Timeline which captures an audio loop from the DB-01. Even better, the process is absolutely seamless - and in stereo! This is something even many expensive dedicated looper pedals can't easily achieve.
Take things a step further and you can sequence all sorts of interesting audio manipulations using the looper function.
If you're impatient and just want the guts of the method, watch from 4:11 to 7:30.

0:00 Intro blather
0:28 What you need
1:11 Looper note numbers
1:30 MIDI setup basics
2:30 Timeline looper settings
3:35 Looper mode
4:11 MIDI record sequence
5:22 Playback sequence
6:12 Start recording !
7:30 Second example
8:10 Pre-FX mode
9:00 Third example loop
10:20 Reverse loop
11:25 Half-speed
13:00 Combining commands

( And I'm still unhappy at buying the murky grey-green Timeline just before the "midnight edition" was announced :/ )
